'''Leslie Stephen Coles''' (January 19, 1941<ref name="Los Angeles Times">[https://www.latimes.com/local/obituaries/la-me-stephen-coles-20141205-story.html L. Stephen Coles dies at 73; studied extreme aging in humans]. Steve Chawkins. ''Los Angeles Times''.

With Steven M. Kaye, he founded the Gerontology Research Group in 1990.<ref>[https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/abs/10.1089/rej.2013.1444?journalCode=rej Interview with L. Stephen Coles, MD, PhD]. ''Rejuvenation Research''. June 11, 2013</ref> Coles was a visiting scholar in the computer science department at the University of California, Los Angeles, and an assistant researcher in the Department of Surgery at the David Geffen School of Medicine.<ref name="Case summary" />

Coles had discussed [[cryonics]] with several knowledgeable individuals but had rejected it, apparently on the grounds that cracking would make [[revival]] unlikely. Further conversations and discussions of the evidence changed his mind late in 2014.<ref name="Case summary" />

Coles suffered from pancreatic cancer. In November 2014, he entered a hospital in Las Vegas because the cancer had compromised his immune system, allowing bacterial pneumonia to develop, which resulted in serious pulmonary edema. During this time, he decided that cryonics did in fact give him a chance and that he wanted to do it. However, he lacked funding. An unusual agreement was worked out that allowed him to be cryopreserved with only a small fraction of the cost provided by donations and the rest covered by the [[Alcor Life Extension Foundation]]. In return, Coles agreed to allow Alcor to cryopreserve his brain only (without the skull), and to do research (including tissue biopsy and examination for ice formation and cracking).<ref name="Case summary" /> His identifier is '''A-2786'''.

Coles is a signatory of the [[Scientists' Open Letter on Cryonics]], having signed it on October 7, 2006.<ref>[https://www.biostasis.com/scientists-open-letter-on-cryonics/ SCIENTISTS’ OPEN LETTER ON CRYONICS]</ref>
